"I stayed for 3 nights for a conference and was blown away by the hotel. Check in was quick and easy. The room itself is the most modern and high tech that I have had the pleasure of staying in. All lights, heating, power curtains are controlled using multiple easily accessible touch screen pan..."

"Description of the standard room on hotels.com was incorrect: it did not have bathtub, only shower. Even though it wasn't the hotel's fault, they kindly upgraded us to a room with bathtub. Location is perfect for shopping, restaurants, theaters, near Covent Garden and Soho. Room was very comfy ..."

"The hotel is a calm oasis in the weirdness that is Canary Wharf, possibly the biggest construction site in the world. Staff are friendly and helpful. Facilities above average, but it's reasonably priced. Food is average, room very comfortable."

"Stayed here for my wife's birthday treat! Got a room upgrade to a Premier City View room, which was fantastic and gave a great view of the City and out West! Would definitely consider staying again as I don't think we made full use of the amenities, including the Pool on the 52nd floor which lo..."

The room was beautiful - a corner room looking over King's Cross, big windows and very clean, great quality ..."

When an area’s a designated transport hub it normally rings alarm bells. But in Paddington – whose romantic 19th century station is worth a look, even if it’s just to glimpse the Paddington Bear Statue – there’s more than just trains. Grab a drink in one of the water-side bars in the revamped Paddington Canal Basin, or if you fancy a stroll head to handsome Hyde Park – home to leafy lake-side paths.

Home to many of London’s iconic historic landmarks – including the highly-decorated Houses of Parliament, the royal-wedding hotspot of Westminster Abbey, and the Queen’s London home of Buckingham Palace – bustling Victoria and Westminster are arguably London – and England’s – heartland. Once you’re done sight-seeing, wander through leafy Green Park, get tickets to a musical in one of the glitzy theaters around Victoria Station, or grab a pint in a truly British boozer.

Encompassing much of London’s commercial appeal, it’s almost impossible to pin down this vast central area – from the exclusive mansion blocks, celebrity-filled hotels, and designer boutiques of Mayfair to the elegant buildings, soulful community vibe, and traditional pubs of Marylebone. At the heart of it all is Oxford Street – London’s bustling hectic commercial center home to high street fashion and a perfect place for some retail therapy.

King’s Cross – St. Pancras has vastly transformed in the last decade or so, from edgy, bordering on seedy, unloved district to cool area with buzzy nightlife, affordable hotels, and cultural institutions, including the British Library, London Canal Museum, and Gagosian Art Gallery. Enjoy a pint in one of King’s Cross' traditional pubs or wander under the glass arch of shop-filled St. Pancras station with its boutiques and cool cafés.

Soho’s appeal hasn’t always been upmarket. Nowadays trendy bistros frequented by media luvvies and theater-land-goers sit side by side with old family-run restaurants. Traditional pubs prop up street corners next to chic bars, and old-school shops neighbor designer boutiques. Surprisingly, Soho’s edginess hasn’t completely disappeared – flashy signs can still be glimpsed – but don’t be put off, this is one of London’s most authentically cool areas.

The City of London

Every day hundreds of thousands of urban workers commute to The City – home to London’s world-leading financial institutions. It’s actually one of London’s oldest districts - classic buildings line the streets, though these days gleaming modern architecture stands over them. The Tower of London sits river-side in this district - head here to buff up your history, before grabbing drinks alongside city slickers in one of the area’s flashy bars.

Wide streets lined by period buildings and small leafy squares make it easy to see why so many thinkers, novelists, and intellectuals have found themselves in Bloomsbury at some point. From the novelist Virginia Woolf to Charles Darwin, many of the buildings have blue plaques noting their association with an important person. If you fancy immersing yourself in culture, Bloomsbury abounds with choice - don’t miss the British Museum.

Along one of the Thames’ most scenic stretches, South Bank’s a haven for the arts. Southbank Centre – ugly on the outside but gleaming on the inside with the Royal Festival Hall and the Hayward Gallery – the British Film Institute, and the National Theatre all call this area home. Waterloo Station’s main drag is hectic but away from the bustle, laid-back streets brim with cool cafés, independent stores, and cockney markets.

One of London's culture-crammed districts, Kensington makes a great day out. Kids will be blown away by the dinosaurs at the Natural History Museum, while lovers of vintage cool will relish the V&A. And let's not forget the Science Museum, a short stroll away. There's always something happening at the Earl's Court Exhibition Centre, and if all the activity makes you thirsty, try the Victorian pubs on Kensington Church Street.
